• Follower data is available from the moment you first connect your profile to Metricool, or from the moment you renew the granted permissions if your profile was already connected.
• Post stats are only available for content published via Metricool (due to LinkedIn’s API limitations—historical data and external content aren’t accessible; this restriction does not apply to company pages).

ℹ️ What is engagement?

Engagement measures how users interact with your content in relation to how visible or far-reaching it is.

In Metricool, you can choose between different calculation formulas.

Note: The engagement of competitors is calculated differently from your own account. We recommend adding your own account as a competitor to make the data comparable.
